Song: Black Horse and the Cherry Tree
By:   KT Tunstall

[intro:]
{Two, three, four}
| Em  |  B7  Em  |   Em  |  B7  Em | 
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) (woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 

 [verse: 1]
{muted guitar+percussions}
Well my heart knows me better than I know myself
So I'm gonna let it do all the talking
| Em  |  B7  Em  |  
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 
 
{muted guitar+percussions}
I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
| Em  |  B7  Em  |  
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 
 
{muted guitar+percussions}
I felt a little fear upon my back
He said "Don't look back, just keep on walking
| Em  |  B7  Em  |   
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 

{muted guitar+percussions}
When the big black horse said, "Look this way"
Said, "Hey, lady baby, will you marry me?"
| Em  |  B7  Em  |
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 

[chorus:]
          {band kicks in}
           Em    D    D6    Cmaj7    
But I said no,  no,   no, no-no-no
       Em    D     C9                  Em
I said no,  no, you're not the one for me
Em   D   D6      Cmaj7 
No,  no, noo, no-no-no
       Em    D   C9  {let ring}
I said no,  no, you're not the one for me

| Em  |  B7  Em  |    
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 
 
{muted guitar+percussions} 
And my heart hit a problem, in the early hours,
So I stopped it dead for a beat or two
| Em  |  B7  Em  |   
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)  

{muted guitar+percussions} 
But I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,
And it won't forgive me after all these years

| Em  |  B7  Em  |   
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo)  

{muted guitar+percussions} 
So I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere
With a big black horse and a cherry tree
| Em  |  B7  Em  |  
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 

{muted guitar+percussions} 
Now it won't come back, 'cause it's oh so happy
And now I've got a hole for the world to see
| Em  |  B7  Em  |  
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 

[chorus:]
          {band kicks in}
            Em    D    D6    Cmaj7    
And it said no,  no,   no, no-no-no
       Em    D     C9                  Em
I said no,  no, you're not the one for me
Em   D   D6      Cmaj7 
No,  no, noo, no-no-no
       Em    D   C9  {let ring}
I said no,  no, you're not the one for me

| Em  |  B7  Em  |   Em  |  B7  Em | 
                   Not the one for me
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) (woo-hoo, woo-hoo) 

[chorus:]  {acapella}
Said no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
You're not the one for me
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) (woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
You're not the one for me

[coda:]
{band kicks in}
Em        D     D6    Cmaj7   Em
Big black horse and a cherry tree
Em        D                       C9               Em
I can't quite get there 'cause my heart's forsaken me
Em        D     D6     Cmaj7    Em   
Big black horse and a cherry tree
Em            D                  C9  {let ring}
I can't quite get there cause my heart's forsaken me

| Em  |  B7  Em  |   Em  |  B7  Em | 
                   Not the one for me
(woo-hoo, woo-hoo) (woo-hoo, woo-hoo)
